Chapter 520: The Result of Some People Are Happy and Some Are Sad
"Ahem, um... Yahiko, long time no see." Obito reluctantly walked forward and greeted.
Hearing someone calling his name, Yahiko looked back.
"Long time no see, Obito." Yahiko responded with a smile.
Although he had only met Obito once, Yahiko had a deep impression of Obito, because Obito said that he would become the Hokage and end the war.
And Obito was also a ninja that Kakuzu needed to pay attention to in his intelligence.
"What a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet here." Obito walked to Yahiko and said.
"Yeah." Yahiko nodded, thinking of something and couldn't help laughing.
"Haha, but it seems that our reunion is a bit early, and neither of us is famous in the ninja world."
When they met, Yahiko and Obito agreed that the next time they heard about each other, they would be famous in the ninja world. Now, this situation is obviously a failure.
Both Yahiko and Obito are only famous in their own circles, and have not been famous in the ninja world.
"Aren't we on the way to becoming famous in the ninja world? If we all make it to the finals, we will be famous." Obito replied with a smile.
The Youth Martial Arts Tournament is different from the joint Chunin Exam of the Ninja Village. This really attracted a lot of attention in the ninja world. If we can get the first place, it will definitely be famous in the ninja world in terms of pure publicity.
"Indeed." Yahiko thought about it and it was true. With the popularity of the Youth Martial Arts Tournament, the top two would definitely get a lot of attention.
"Xiao Lin, have you seen my photo? It won't be lost, right?" Kakashi deliberately raised his voice and asked Nohara Rin.
He saw that Obito seemed to be chatting so much that he forgot that the purpose was to gather intelligence.
"No." Nohara Rin turned around and looked around and replied.
Obito successfully extracted the keywords from the photo, and remembered Kakashi's order, and asked quickly:
"Yahiko, do you know the ninja master Sosuke, who organized this competition? He has been very famous in the ninja world recently."
"Teacher Sosuke, of course I know him, I am one of his first followers." Yahiko answered proudly.
"Under the leadership of Teacher Sosuke, the Rain Country is gradually getting better and moving towards peace and stability."
Kakashi listened to Yahiko and fell into thought.
Obviously, Yahiko is now a die-hard fan of Sosuke, and has even joined the Ninja Clan.
Based on Nagato's expression when he looked at Sosuke, Kakashi probably is similar to Yahiko.
"The Akatsuki organization will become the evil organization that captures the tailed beasts in the future, which is very likely related to Sosuke." Kakashi speculated in his heart.
The current Akatsuki organization is too different from the future Akatsuki organization. Such an extreme change is obviously not a normal development trend.
Kakashi thought that the leaders of Akatsuki had experienced some kind of major life changes, which led to such a huge contrast between the entire organization before and after.
"Obito, how is your journey to Hokage going?" Yahiko asked.
Obito scratched his head, "Still working hard."
Becoming Hokage is Obito's dream, but Obito doesn't know how to become Hokage now.
He has never heard of any Hokage exam, and he can become Hokage if he passes it.
"Come on! As long as you work hard, you will definitely have a chance." Yahiko encouraged.
Yahiko thinks it would be a good thing for Obito to become Hokage. After all, how can a peace-loving person be a bad person?
"Contestants, please go to the lounge to draw lots and prepare for the battle." The staff of the Ninja Clan came to the waiting area for the contestants and shouted.
Yahiko and Obito stopped communicating tacitly when they saw this. Obito returned to the team and went to the lounge with Kakashi and others.
As soon as they arrived at the lounge, the staff of the Ninja Clan brought out a large box and asked the contestants to draw numbers one by one.
"Number one vs. number two, number three vs. number four, and so on. If you defeat your opponent, you can advance to the next round." The ninja staff explained the rules.
The rules of the Youth Martial Arts Tournament are the most simple and unpretentious, so no one stood up to raise questions. After all, such simple and straightforward rules require no explanation.
"So late." Obito looked at the thirty wooden sticks on his hand and felt that his luck in drawing numbers was average.
Number thirty means that except for the first round, all the battles that follow are his last.
"Xiaolin, what are your numbers? I'm number thirty." Obito walked directly to Kakashi and Nohara Rin and asked.
After everyone draws a number, the ninja staff will register it as soon as possible. It is impossible to exchange or change it. It is information that will definitely be made public.
"I'm number thirteen." Nohara Rin replied.
"Number fifteen." Kakashi replied briefly.
Obito's eyes widened. The two numbers are so close. If they both advance to the second round, they will meet in the next game.
"The naturally evil white-haired one is actually going to stop Xiaolin from making it to the second round!" Obito complained in his heart.
Originally, Obito thought that Nohara Lin had a certain chance of entering the quarterfinals. Apart from the few who were also Mu Yue's disciples, only Nagato showed super strong suppression power, and the puppeteer was just suspected to be quite strong.
But Nohara Rin's luck today was obviously worse than Obito's, and she met Kakashi in the second round.
"No, maybe Kakashi's bad luck caused Xiao Lin to suffer."
Thinking of Kakashi's threat to him, Obito cursed Kakashi in his heart again. How could the kind and beautiful Nohara Rin have any problems? It must be Kakashi's fault!
"My number is eleven, the numbers are very close, Kakashi, is this the bond between close friends!" Might Guy shouted excitedly after the draw.
Kakashi made a simple calculation in his mind and his expression became a little serious.
If he and Might Guy both advance to the third round, they will meet in the quarterfinals.
"Too little chakra, more chakra will give us more tactics." Kakashi subconsciously deduced the battle with Might Guy in his mind, and then shook his head.
Wuxiang Yidao consumes too much for him. Kakashi can't use it if the chakra consumption is slightly more, but it is difficult to create an opportunity to attack if the chakra consumption is not consumed.
Might Guy, who combined the Eight Gates of the Ninjutsu with Rock Breathing Chak, not only had absolute power, but was also extremely fast.
Unlike Kakashi, Obito felt his eyes light up.
Might Guy was number 11, and he was number 30, which meant that Obito could only meet Might Guy in the finals.
Kakashi could still bet on the Wuxiang Yidao, but Obito really had no way to deal with Might Guy now. Under normal circumstances, the probability of him winning against Might Guy was zero.
"I'm number 19." Shisui came over and reported his number.
"The knockout round is about to begin. Players, please pay attention to the broadcast in the lounge. There is a battle order list on the screen." The staff of the Ninja Clan reminded.
As soon as the staff of the Ninja Clan finished speaking, the big screen in the lounge lit up, showing the order of the sixteen battles in the first round from high to low.
"Number one is actually that Nagato." Maki saw the first battle on the big screen, and then looked at the number two in his hand, his face changed slightly.
There was a Sand Village ninja who was assigned to Nagato's division during the preliminaries, so Maki knew that Nagato was a tough guy.
Nagato glanced at the big screen casually and then looked away.
He didn't care who his opponent was, because he would keep winning until the end of the game.
"He is good at large-scale ninjutsu, mainly using wind escape and fire escape..." Maki began to think about countermeasures based on Nagato's intelligence.
"You can keep dodging and wait for the opponent to show a flaw, and then look for opportunities for close-range attacks."
Maki is a ninja who specializes in wind escape, but he does not pursue the attack range, but mainly pursues the lethality of wind escape, striving to kill the enemy with one blow.
As long as he seizes the output opportunity, no matter what kind of disadvantage he has fallen into before, Maki is confident of turning the tables.
Kakashi did not look for his opponent first, but looked down from the first.
"Sand Crab is number eight, which is a good draw for us." Kakashi saw Sand Crab's name in the fourth game of the first round.
If Nagato and Sand Crab both advance, they will meet in the quarterfinals at the latest, and then it is unlikely that either Nagato or Sand Crab will continue to hide their strength.
"In the first game, No. 1 Nagato vs. No. 2 Maki! Please enter the venue quickly." The referee's voice came into the lounge.
Nagato said hello to Konan Yahiko and left the lounge and walked towards the central battle venue.
"Maki, keep going!" Yura encouraged.
Sand Village didn't send many people to begin with, and only the two of them advanced to the knockout round. If Maki lost, he would be the only one, and the pressure would be different instantly.
"I'll try my best." Maki replied in a deep voice and walked out of the lounge.
As soon as he entered the battle venue, Maki could clearly feel a lot of eyes on him.
"Maybe Lord Kazekage should pay more attention to it." Maki thought to himself.
He felt that if he wanted to participate, he had to be serious, or he might as well not get involved. If he didn't do well, he would think that Sand Village was not strong enough. There were only two ninjas in the knockout round, and it was not certain when they would be eliminated.
Hanzo on the high platform narrowed his eyes slightly after seeing Nagato, and recalled some not-so-good memories.
If Nagato was weaker that day, and if Kakuzu hadn't been there, perhaps his plan to siege wouldn't have failed miserably.
Hanzo sighed slightly. It wasn't going to fail so miserably, but it would still fail, because even if he was reborn and tried again, he wouldn't be sure to kill Sosuke.
Going against someone like Sosuke would be asking for trouble. If Hanzo was really reborn, he would probably kick Shimura Danzo out of the door, and then give Sosuke a title to help him become famous.
In this way, not only would they not become enemies, but Hanzo would also be half a level higher than Sosuke, after all, he gave him the title.
The Root members in the audience quietly picked up their little notebooks to record Nagato's information.
Huangtu shook his head when he saw this. He had seen the siege and knew that Nagato's strength was strange, and Nagato had surpassed ordinary ninjas by far.
After knowing that Nagato was among the contestants, Huangtu knew that the Ninja Clan would not let other forces take away the first place reward.
The players in the lounge looked at the battle field intently when they saw the match was about to begin.
Intelligence plays an important role in ninja battles. For the participating ninjas, watching the game is actually a part of the game.
Whoever can collect more intelligence from the details of the battle will gain a greater advantage in the next battle.
"The battle begins!" the referee shouted immediately after seeing the two ready.
Swish, swish, swish! !
Maki did not rush forward or backward, but chose to take out his shuriken and shoot at Nagato.
"Wind Style: Suppress!"
Nagato still chose to use the tactics in the preliminaries, taking advantage of his huge amount of chakra to use large-scale ninjutsu to suppress.
A large amount of wind attribute chakra was compressed into a small ball and spit out from Nagato's mouth.
Whoosh! !
The moment the wind ball was spit out, the wind blew violently on the field. The high-density wind ball exploded and caused a huge storm with terrifying destructive power. The ground was also torn apart under this storm, and mud and stones flew and dust flew everywhere.
"So strong." Maki was secretly shocked.
Hearing information from others is not as direct as seeing it with your own eyes. At this moment, he understood why the Sand Ninja was vaguely afraid. This wind escape was really scary.
Maki activated all his chakra and quickly retreated. In this case, he could only avoid the sharp edge and look for opportunities. Anyway, his original battle plan was the same.
Fortunately, the battlefield was wide enough, and Maki successfully withdrew from Nagato's attack range with decisive actions.
"Earth escape·Mountain Earth Technique!"
After failing to hit, Nagato continued to seal with unchanged expression. Mu Yue taught him many high-level five-nature ninjutsu, but this was just the beginning.
Boom! !
Maki only felt a tremor, and the ground on both sides suddenly cracked and rose up to press towards him at a high speed.
Maki didn't care about anything else, and burst out with a speed beyond the limit to escape and avoid being crushed into Maki-chan's ending.
"Mountain Earth Technique is not very useful in this situation." Huang Tu commented.
The Mountain and Earth Technique is Huang Tu's specialty. Unless the opponent is very large or there are teammates to hold him back, the hit rate of the Mountain and Earth Technique is worrying.
Of course, the power is really great. Once it hits, Huang Tu thinks that there are few people in the entire ninja world who can withstand it.
"Fire Style: Fire Dragon Flame Bomb!"
When Maki escaped from the squeeze of the Mountain and Earth Technique, the fierce sea of fire surrounded Maki again, completely putting Maki in a desperate situation.
"Nagato wins!" The referee announced Nagato's victory.
Maki wiped off the hot sweat on his face, without any dissatisfaction in his heart. He lost this battle with conviction.
Their strengths were too different. Nagato chased him from the beginning of the battle. It was unrealistic to find Nagato's flaws as expected. Dealing with Nagato's ninjutsu had consumed all his energy.
PS: It's broken, it's really 2.5 Satoru. Today, I have an inexplicable backache and a writer's block. I can't write it no matter what.
Sure enough, I shouldn't have set a flag. It's all because of Lao Wu (not).
Let me report the progress of the extra chapter. At present, the framework outline is complete, and the only thing left is to fill in the specific content.
I will try to write part of the Naruto extra chapter before May 10th (the main story is still updated every day, and the extra chapter will be added)
The Naruto extra chapter in May is the Pain chapter, which is probably about Naruto VS Pain in Breathing of the Sun.
At present, I am thinking whether to combine the extra chapter content into one chapter. It is not very nice to have a lot of extra chapters in the main text directory.
